Bus/Financial - Law: Contract(s)
Spanish term or phrase: disponga concertadamente
En particular, se presumirá que existe control cuando x Inc., que se calificará como sociedad dominante, se encuentre en relación con otra sociedad, que se calificará como dependiente, en alguna de las siguientes situaciones:
Posea la mayoría de los derechos de voto en relación con su capital social o equivalente.
Tenga la facultad de nombrar o destituir a la mayoría de los miembros del órgano de administración.
Pueda disponer, en virtud de acuerdos celebrados con terceros, de la mayoría de los derechos de voto.
Haya designado con sus votos a la mayoría de los miembros del órgano de administración, que desempeñen su cargo en el momento en que deban formularse las cuentas consolidadas y durante los dos ejercicios inmediatamente anteriores.
A los efectos de esta definición a los derechos de voto de la entidad dominante se añadirán los que posea a través de otras sociedades dependientes o a través de personas que actúen en su propio nombre pero por cuenta de la entidad dominante o de otras dependientes o ****aquellos de los que disponga concertadamente con cualquier otra persona****..

I AM HAVING TROUBLE UNDERSTANDING THE VERY END OF THIS PARAGRAPH. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

or those which which it has made arrangements with any person BUT...see below


Explanation:
This is the famous Section 42 of the Spanish Commercail Code, which pops up on my translations at least once a week.

The answer given is from the English version published by the Spanish Ministry of Justice, see

http://www.mjusticia.gob.es/cs/Satellite/1292363991034?blobh...

However, I am not sure I agree entirely with the translation. I would say

"... or those in respect of which it acts in concert with any person."

Take you pick and have fun.

This is not the first time that in a legal document, especially contracts or finance agreements, the definition of control contained in Section 42 of the Commercial Code has been lifted verbatim.
